ActOn 3D Printing Post-processing Solutions
Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing) is now an established technology for prototyping and production. Selecting the most suitable surface finishing technology is critical to prove the viability of components from a cost and functional standpoint. In an ideal world, surface finishing must be considered when designing components for AM to ensure the desired component and its characteristics can be achieved.
ActOn Finishing is at the forefront of revolutionising the additive manufacturing industry with its cutting-edge post-processing technology. Specialising in providing advanced solutions for refining 3D-printed components, we ensure a seamless transition from digital design to finished product. The state-of-the-art technologies we provide encompass a range of surface finishing processes, from deburring and polishing to surface texturing, resulting in enhanced aesthetics and performance of additively manufactured parts.
At ActOn we have worked closely with major manufacturers in the 3d printing industry to adapt and develop finishing solutions that meet their stringent requirements. Our expertise extends to a diverse array of materials, from metals to polymers, and a wide range of components.
With a commitment to delivering precision and quality, ActOn Finishing plays a pivotal role in elevating the overall standards of the additive manufacturing sector, offering comprehensive solutions for perfecting the final touches on 3D printed creations.
During the Beyond Print event you will have the opportunity to learn more about ActOn’s effective and fast post-processing solutions and participate in discussions about optimising your manufacturing process, as well as attend industry-specific seminars and presentations, where you will learn how to improve productivity, while maintaining product quality, without increasing the size of the shop floor. Moreover you will receive technical and educational content dedicated to real-world additive manufactured parts.
